Take A Trip Back In Time And Master This Quiz About The 1960s!

Some of the questions were hard, since I was born in 1955. But at least I passed.
Thanks for this!

That was a long quiz! I was born in '62 and missed 2 questions. Not too bad, although I think the questions I passed well from stuff I've heard throughout my life, not info I remember from the actual 60's era.

Yeah, I was too young to know a lot of early 60's stuff, but learned it from reading and from TV mostly.

I do remember Kennedy and his funeral service from real life. I was in third grade when he was killed. My class heard it over the school's loudspeaker in my classroom.

I was in 1st grade. The school got weird and all the teachers were crying and sniffing. From somewhere all the teachers produced radios and we just sat there listening to the radio. I vaguely recall the funeral.

Geez that was so LONG. It didn't say how many questions it was, and it would have been helpful. I had to take 2 breaks, it seemed to go on forever. I didn't know if that "coin" number was the number of questions. A couple of times I know I clicked the answer but a stupid ad came up.

But at least I passed. I got 50 out of 64 correct. I guessed on the sports questions and on a few others. Most I either remember the event/person or we learned in school years later. I'm glad I didn't have to sign in to see my results; I wasn't sure about that part.

I was born in 1961 so didn't remember MLK assassination per se, but we learned about him and his speech in school.

I was a toddler when JFK was killed. But I do remember RFK's assassination.

I was almost 8 when Woodstock happened, and I had an older teenager brother who kept talking about it with his friends. I thought they meant the bird in the Peanut's strip, LOL. "No, not THAT Woodstock! This is a rock concert."

60's had the best music I think, esp. Woodstock.
